Writers provide an implementation of various `message writers`. | ||
Message writers are services that normalize (in `SenML` format) | ||
Mainflux messages and store them in specific data store. | ||
Consumers provide an abstraction of various `Mainflux consumers`. | ||
Mainflux consumer is a generic service that can handle received messages - consume them. | ||
The message is not necessarily a Mainflux message - before consuming, Mainflux message can | ||
be transformed into any valid format that specific consumer can understand. For example, | ||
writers are consumers that can take a SenML or JSON message and store it. | ||
|
||
Writers are optional services and are treated as plugins. In order to | ||
run writer services, core services must be up and running. For more info | ||
on the platform core services with its dependencies, please check out | ||
the [Docker Compose][compose] file. | ||
Consumers are optional services and are treated as plugins. In order to | ||
run consumer services, core services must be up and running. | ||
